Key Responsibilities

1. Test Cell Infrastructure & Integrated Systems

? Lead Diesel Genset Test Cells, managing critical utilities including cooling water circuits, fuel delivery systems, and exhaust extraction.

? Manage high-capacity Load Banks (Resistive/Inductive) and ensure the infrastructure can handle power ranges from small industrial units up to multi-megawatt gensets.

? Oversee the integration of Automated Data Acquisition Systems (DAQ) to monitor real-time engine parameters (Torque, RPM, Thermal profiles, and Fuel Consumption).

2. Component-Level Testing?

? Perform deep-dive component-level testing on critical genset parts(Radiator , Fan , Silencer , AVM's)

? Troubleshoot complex electrical "noise" and signal integrity issues within the test bed workplace.

. Asset Maintenance & Reliability (OEE)

? Develop a robust Preventative and Predictive Maintenance schedule for dynamometers, fuel flow meters, and emission analyzers.

? Act as the subject matter expert for Root Cause Analysis (RCA) when test bed failures or engine performance deviations occur during end-of-line (EOL) testing.

? Drive the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of the testing department by reducing changeover times between different genset models.

? Develop and maintain Manufacturing Bill of Materials (MBOM) and detailed Work Instructions (WIs).1

? Lead the selection and commissioning of heavy-lifting equipment, torque-controlled tooling,



and automated fluid-fill stations.

Operational Excellence

? Drive Lean Manufacturing initiatives (Kaizen, 5S, Value Stream Mapping) to reduce cycle times and eliminate waste in the "Line-Set" process.

? Design custom jigs, fixtures, and shop-floor layouts using 3D CAD software (SolidWorks/Creo).3

? Oversee the integration of Test Cells into the manufacturing flow, ensuring seamless transition from assembly to hot-run validation.

. Calibration Governance

? Maintain the master calibration laboratory standards, ensuring all master gauges and reference instruments are traceable to national standards (NIST/NABL).

? Standardize Calibration Certificates and documentation for customer-facing compliance reports.

? Domain Expertise: Deep knowledge of Test bed handling Genset/Engine and engine-to-alternator coupling.

? Testing Software: Proficiency in LabVIEW, AVL Puma, or similar engine test automation platforms.

? Standards: Familiarity with ISO 8528 (Genset performance) and ISO 3046 (Reciprocating internal combustion engines).

? Tools: Expert use of Fluke calibrators, oscilloscopes, and combustion analyzers.
